      I think this video should properly be aimed at people who have deleted their character and decided to start again for whatever reason.
      For new players this is just showing how to skip the fun and exciting beginning part of the game and move straight into end game, if you're only interested in the pvp or something I guess.
      I don't recommend this video to new players.

    What "high res sites"? Where did you go in that blue giant system to get to those pirates. I couldn't find them anywhere over there. This game gives such little detail on how to do anything it's irritating. I want to love the game but I keep getting stuck when I try to find more things to do.

Ok great, where the hell do I find uranium??? I look on my list of places to go and see a (high) mining site? I go out and explore and find nothing.

    As a new player, it took me quite a while to actually finish what this tutorial taught me how to do. Found this vid about a month ago, and began following. Very quickly made enough $$$ to buy an anaconda, so I did. Then I discovered the Phantom, fell in love, worked on engineering to get it's jump range up, unlocked about 8 engineers. Then I discovered combat, bought a Chieftain, and did a few wing missions. Eventually, I got down to about $40M in the bank and decided to get back to mining to make some more cheddar. But this time I've been mining in the anaconda, using the python as a fast hauler. Been doing that for the last couple days and am sitting at 97% Elite trader status. Would have been there 2 weeks ago but I've been too distracted having fun with all this cheddar!! Thanks, Hawkes!

      In 2021 Elite Dangerous is for you if:
      1) you have no job, no hobby and no life, willing to travel to almost every mission above 10 real-time min;
      2) you like to grind, grind and more grind;
      3) you can ignore annoying bugs, annoying rules, repetitive and boring gameplay;
      4) you are ready to spend more time googling things than actually playing, because this game is THE MOST unintuitive and unnecessarily complicated one I've ever played with no useful tutorial whatsoever;
      5) you are ok with no goal in the game;
      6) you like meditative games;
      7) you like realistic cosmos and starships.
      Advice: just go play No Man's Sky instead.

    Also, a note about overlaps: While they don't increase the amount of cores, it DOES increase the type of cores, meaning that in double overlaps most cores will be musgravite.

      I noticed this with overlapping platinum hotspots. The shape is as common as normal (like, 1 out of 5), they are just muuuuch more likely to contain platinum. Same with alexandrite and ltd, so I would assume this applies to any mineral/metal.

    I just started playing this year, got the game on the Steam Winter Sale, and I just wanted to say thank you a lot for all your effort making these guides! I found your 2019 starter video and oh boy, it did help me A LOT. I know that video is almost 2 years old but that one taught me all the essentials and what to google to learn more. Now I am already on my 5th trip with the Python and very close to Elite rank thanks to your help. Maybe it took me a little longer than it should but I am enjoying this game a lot. Keep up the great job.

    Thank you for the guide! I started recently and it's been absolutely a blast, especially since I was completely lost in the beginning. I just got up to an asp explorer and started learning how to core mine. All your guides are super useful and informative! Thanks again!

  • @fawtyseven5516
    @fawtyseven5516 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hell yeah. Another easy way alone in a sidewinder or eagle for very, very FIRST starters is do a easy mission or two after learning the basic scanning and flying, and whip out that DSS (Detailed Surface Scanner.) as soon as you get a better FSD. Set your star map to (I think) to K and M stars only. The cooler ones, like ours in real life. Jump to a system with these stars and DS, FSS. the said planets to see if they are there. Easy start up money in the millions if you're soloing. You'll most likely find high value planets in those "planet habital" stars. Like an Earth-like world would more likely be there so if you do all the scans, that's an easy 3,249,900 credits. "Terraformable" worlds will pay 7 figures, too. Like, a rocky body isn't much, but a terraformable rocky body will be about 1.5 million credits, and a water world like this is about 3.2 million with all the scans. Just turn them in further away than where you found them and rack up to get better stuff to do the "better" stuff like the video quicker. Fire... I was literally thinking of naming one of my Corvettes "Beavis" and have it yellow. lol

    Thanks Hawkes, great guide. It got me into a python super quick and helped me learn core mining from the point of being complete space newb. If others are struggling to recognise cores just persevere. Once you find a few you'll get it and you'll be farming space lemons in no time.

  • @johnnystlou
    @johnnystlou 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    To ED Newbs; Don't get discouraged. Once you get past the steep Elite Dangerous learning curve, AND the steep Hawkes Gaming lingo and speed talking curves, then everything makes sense. It all just falls into place and "clicks" suddenly.
    Hawkes "drink from the firehose" approach is a good thing though. It forces you to learn quickly and seek answers elsewhere, i.e. the support sites Hawkes links. I am already accustomed to Hawkes lingo and methods from his NMS best start videos, so this made sense to me after viewing once; albeit with several pauses and rewinds. In NMS I can do Hawkes best start in my sleep.
    I will add one tip not seen elsewhere. Everyone says "Do the training." But what should be emphasized is "Do the training several times until you are familiar with the controls and feel comfortable." Then just get out there and be someone!

    This game makes Eve Online's learning curve look flat. This video for 'beginners' is making a huge assumption about the skills of new players. It would be VERY helpful to have a list of videos in some kind of reasonable order to be able to actually follow this video and understand what to do. Hell FSS scans dont even have key binds unless you set them up yourself. Arbitrary game mechanics like... must be in supercruise to use FSS. Why? what purpose does that actually serve, other than adding additional steps. However thats stuff that needs to be said, not assumed we know how. Setting up out of ship cameras.... thats a whole tutorial in itself! This is a great guide dont get me wrong, but new players need a lot of context first

    A better power set up for the python is with a 6A power plant and a 4A life support to boost the integrity back up. The 7A power plant is no good as its over by 0.1 which means you have to switch off a module, which you failed to mention if you go with your set up.

    Very helpful video, ED is hard to get into! Minor issue with the Python build in the description; it's 0.1 over the power output so when you deploy at a site it will offline your cargo hatch. Either upgrade power plant to 6A or get clever with the priorities so it changes state as you deploy/retract. I wasn't paying attention when I dropped into a ring and it took me a while to figure out my hatch was powered off.
